Jacob

Jacob is 16 months now. He is such a cutie. He loves to dance and be funny. He has learned to give five and we are trying to teach him to talk so that we don't have to listen to his customary screech! Jacob has a different look about him. He has blond hair and blue eyes. Jacob is a little bigger then our other kids too. He is proving to be an avid climber as well. Currently all the chairs around the table are tipped upside down so that he won't push them to the counter and crawl up there.

"Show me your way , oh Lord, teach me Your paths; guide me in Your truth and teach me for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long." -Psalm 25:4-5My Mission for this BLOG is to bring glory to God as I share what He is teaching me as I raise my children for Him. I want to encourage mothers all around the world to hang in there! Motherhood is tough, challenging and gritty. But through Christ's strength and the support of other moms who are in the trenches, I will keep pressing towards the goal to raise Godly children. Please feel free to leave comments. It blesses me so much! You can also email me at sbfirefighter@ortelco.net

About Me

I am a Stay-At-Home mother of six children. We LOVE having a large family. My first love, is Christ and the Words of the Bible. My passion is to teach my children about the Lord. I love to watch my children discover their own faith in God. My husband has been a firefighter for over 20 years and is now an officer. I am very proud of him. I long to be a Titus 2 woman who encourages other women to love their husbands and children and to thrive in their homes, not just survive.

Some Beautiful Quotes on Motherhood

The noblest calling in the world is that of a mother. True motherhood is the most beautiful of all arts, the greatest of all professions. She who can paint a masterpiece or who can write a book that will influence millions deserves the plaudits and admiration of mankind; but she who rears successfully a family of healthy, beautiful sons and daughters whose immortal souls will be exerting an influence throughout the ages long after paintings shall have faded, and books and statues shall have been destroyed, deserves the highest honor that man can give.-David O. McKayMotherhood is the one thing in all the world which most truly exemplifies the God-given virtues of creating and sacrficing. Though it carries the woman close to the brink of death, motherhood also leads her into the very realm of the fountians of life and makes her co-partner with the Creator in bestowing upon eternal spirits mortal life.-David O McKayWe can't form our children on our own concepts; we must take them and love them as God gives them to us. -Johann Wolfgang von GoetheLo, children are a heritage of the Lord; and the fruit of the womb is his reward.-Psalm 127:3The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom-Henry Ward BeecherThe art of mothering is to teach the art of living to children.-Elaine HeffnerPeople who say they sleep like babies usually don't have them.-Leo J. Burke

To be a mother is a woman's greatest vocation in life. She is a partner with God. No being has a position of such power and influence. She holds in her hands the destiny of nations, for to her comes the responsibility and opportunity of molding the nation's citizens. -Spencer W. Kimball
